Graduate Scheme

We run several different Graduate Programmes depending on skill set and where your area of study fits within our business. Our general programme is a 2 year rotational scheme divided into 4 separate 6 month placements, where you will spend time in all areas of the Taylor Wimpey business including; production, commercial, technical, sales and marketing, customer service, land and finance. However we also focus on specific disciplines such as finance, construction and technical.

As well as functional breadth we also recognise the importance of diverse geographical exposure as our business units have some subtle but important differences in the way they operate. This will depend on things like the local community, economy and customer base. Please click here to see the full list of our business unit locations, by region.

Our Graduate Scheme has been featured in the ‘Best Graduate Programme in the Property & Construction Companies’ category in TheJobCrowd’s ‘Top Companies for Graduates to Work For’ rankings.

You will participate in an exciting development programme including management and leadership training whilst gaining ‘hands on’ experience in all aspects of the business. Working alongside some of the most experienced people in our business this is a fantastic opportunity to join a FTSE 100 house builder that focuses its efforts on people development, sustainability, customer service, commercial performance and build quality.

Following successful completion of the programme, we would expect you to progress in your career to one of the following business areas; production, commercial, technical, sales & marketing, land, customer service or finance.

We aim to equip ambitious, talented and determined individuals to achieve a director role within a 5-year timescale. Senior leaders within the business will monitor your progress and you will be supported in achieving professional and/or other appropriate qualifications if required.

You will have the opportunity to explore different business streams within a leading UK house building company and work with a wide cross section of people as you move between business units throughout the country.
